INSURANCE BAD FAITH

​

Insurance bad faith claims can stem from myriad alleged wrongdoings, including improper handling of an investigation, claim administration, settlement or claim denial. They typically come about through insurance coverage disputes. As our attorneys are involved in resolving coverage litigation, we counsel clients throughout the process of creating bad faith risk management strategies.

​

Bad faith claims require careful handling and litigation from the outset. Our attorneys have managed many of these cases over the years and have considerable experience addressing the nuances of bad faith litigation .

​

Bad faith claims expose an insurer to risk on many levels, including the following:

​

​

​

​

 

​​

EXPOSURE OF CONFIDENTIAL FILES

The discovery process may force an insurer to reveal confidential files and protected attorney-client communications for the case at hand and, in some instances, for any similar cases. These documents quickly become public and are usually resurrected in litigation for years to come.

PUNITIVE DAMAGES
In some states, insurers face punitive damages, even treble damages on a plaintiff’s bad faith award.

EXTRA-CONTRACTUAL DAMAGES A thorough defense can prevent or limit a court’s assessment of bad faith damages, including interest.
